Dear Everyone,
Please join us in congratulating Eugine's, one of our interns, in landing a Graduate Accountant position in Government Department. Before Eugine joined our Level 1 program, he was a fresh graduate without any accounting working experience.
However, Eugine was such a hard-working intern that we could already tell that he has attention to detail, great work ethics and efficient communication skills. He was fully committed to the Level 1 program from September 2013 and finished the program early this year. Later on, in January 2014, he successfully joined Government Department as a Graduate Accountant.
I have attached the interview feedback from him below and I believe that it will be very helpful if you are looking for a similar position.
If you would like to know more about the current job market and technical skills in job hunting please feel free to contact us.

Subject: Thank you Platinum Accounting
Dear Selina, Sally, Sherry, Coco and others,
Thank you for all your help and support. You guys have been great help in myself acquiring the ‘Graduate Account’ position with Council. I have been here for the last 5 months and I thought that I have already sent you this letter however, I found out from you that you didn’t receive it.
What I have learned in Platinum Accounting has helped me a lot in the last 5 months at work. Wouldn’t have done it without the training and support of PA.
Interview: 3 member panel – I prepared for it for 2 weeks, studied about company in details, such as income, expenses, services, customer, clients, what they do, their mission and vision, who the CEO; .
Studied about 100 interview questions including previous work example for every answer I was about to answer.
At the interview I was confident because I had the technical skills from University and PAP, I knew a lot about the employer and I had answers and examples for all the interview questions.
Interview Questions = Answers and Examples
• Tell us about your self – in a way they are asking why you like accounting
• What do you know about us? Wanted to give back to our community………….
• Have you got any questions for us – I said ‘yes’ I have prepared few questions but I will ask shortly.

• Thank you for your time and send them all a ‘Thank you’ letter.
Special thanks to Sally and Sherry, always willing to help the interns.
